The ultra-successful singer just walked away with a Milestone Award at 19 and NOW he has beat the iconic, the legendary Elton John!

JB's Baby has gone platinum 12 times to become the HIGHEST-certified single in HISTORY according to Billboard, demolishing The Rocket Man's 1997 11 times platinum, Candle in the Wind/Something About the Way You Look Tonight.

While it took Elton MANY, many years in the music biz to break the record, Bieby got a hand from the new on-demand streaming data that has been incorporated to measure gold and platinum success.

Beiber is the new forthcoming of Vanilla Ice, just look at his hair, and the way he carries himself. It is a show that will carry on as long as American feeds out of his hands even though he hasn't ever written an original song in his own life. I truly believe that people have lost the love for true musical talent that can send tingles up your spine. There is so much talent within our youth that is overlooked simply for the fact of star factor. It truly is sad how many talented young musicians are overlooked simply because they don't have the marketable look that most companies are so eager to find like gold. But what can you do. I know good music to my ears when I hear it, and I'm sure most do. I wish that I had a better argument but the billboards show it. Hope someone agrees with me. Thanks

Re: MichJB – Welcome to today world. The world of social media where a 19 year old is the most powerful presence worldwide in social media. Olden times are just that olden times. It's ironic you mention YouTube because this is where Justin Bieber was discovered and has dominated since he was 15. Billboard music charts is the platinum standard recognized internationally when it comes to charting music. This historic first ever Billboard Milestone Award was earned and that is something no one can take away from him or even can even argue.

funny how all of you are hating on Justin yet you are all older than him and unsuccessful. you tell his fans to grow up yet you spend time hating on him. and get the message perez, he and selala are friends, the relationship is done. and he meant he's taking a break to see his family when he said gonna take some time, he doesnt need to acknowledge slutlena's using ass

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
